Interesting live footage on CNN
Posted on 04/12/2003 9:27:32 PM PDT by saquin
CNN reporter Brent Sadler traveling on a road very near Tikrit. The retired military officer in the studio keeps telling him to be careful. I find these live shots very nerve-wracking. It seems rather foolish for a reporter to be doing this, considering that Tikrit is a Saddam stronghold. Just a heads-up in case anyone is interested.

Sadler said their guard fired at the checkpoint. Not a good idea.

Are you watching CNN or just reading the thread?
First time this guy has ever been under such close fire in his career.

Nice pass of those two cars. The driver has a future in NASCAR.

Shots exchanged...baby wipes needed.
To: faithincowboys
they are driving fast now, I hope they know their way back. But back to where? What to stop some people from following them back to the CNN convoy.
To: brigette
Still in the hands of Saddam's loyalists.

So far they are okay. Their gunman pulled out his machine gun to get them through the Baathist checkpoint. Sadler said 'That's all for today.'

Unconfirmed reports there are attempts by TELEVISION sources trying to negotiate a surrender?
Does that what he said?
